Sailing by Christopher Cross
“Do you like Christopher Cross? I have been a fan since his eponymous 1980 album. Before that, I really didn't understand any of his work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Sailing where his presence became more apparent. I think it is his undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of his previous works. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this track hits the highest crest of what would become known as "Yacht Rock".”

Sailing/Christopher Cross-1980. Ooooh!
I blame Christopher D. for getting Christopher C. stuck in my head.
IT IS TOO A JAM.
